A lot has been said about how much difference the right picture makes. I don't have a lot of pictures of myself (I'm usually the one behind the lens) but here are the ones I have on my profile. The first one is the primary, and all of them are from the past 12 months. Let me know what you think!

I think all of your pics are fine except with the guy holding up the peace sign. He makes you look 12. Or it could be that you look super young when you smile like that. I'd toss that one.

Agreed. I'd also drop the second picture because of the background. It looks messy. It's all in the details.

And personally, I'd probably not post the last 2. I know it shows the fun side of you, but the lighting isn't that great. And I think you look much better in the other photos.

Just get one of yourself sitting in a Porsche and you'll be good to go.

Hi NJGeek81,

I really enjoy the variety you have here! You’ve got the right idea. I agree with the one about the lighting (not the last one, but the 2nd to the last one, in my personal opinion – just because the blue lighting washes out your facial features).

You may already have done this, but I think some captions would add a nice touch, too.

LMAO!
To the OP-
Do you naturally smile...without your teeth, or is it something conscious that you've always done?

I agree on losing Dad and the peace sign, save that for the family album.
and one drinking pic, per profile..otherwise, she's gonna think you're a barfly.

Thanks, I just scrapped that one. I swear between my chubby moon face and my squinty eyes (I'm half Greek and European mutt, don't know where I got that from), I am not photogenic. It's terrible.
